Father time has not stopped Lebron James from being impactful

The Lakers have finally got their superstar in LeBron James back in the line-up after having back soreness, and it has looked like instant success as well as chemistry between his teammates. In a victory over the Clippers, James had 25 points, 6 rebounds, and 6 assists. Outside of James, Luka and AR 15 combined for 74 points. With James in the line-up, the Lakers were very active on both sides of the floor. Defensively they did not let Kawhi Leonard get to his spots on the floor and made it difficult for him to get into rhythm. He finished with a tough 19.

Being on the court, you see how players react when James is in the line-up. It is a much faster pace and puts the ball in players hands to be successful. After the 135-118 victory, Coach Reddick had this to say about James' effort. "Just thought he played with the right spirit. Very unselfish all night. Was a willing passer, didn't force it, took his drives and his shots when they were there," Lakers coach JJ Redick
